People like tinted windows. It looks nice and provides a some UV protection when parked in the sun. The State is well aware of this, so they made it illegal and can now extort money from thousands of drivers. If you want to believe this is to protect the cops from someone hiding a gun or some shit behind their 35% tint, then fine. Sometimes you have to consider tint and no front tickets a part of the cost of ownership of some cars. I like to call it “FU money,” as in “fuck you, I have the money.” --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/colonie-cops-again/246076)._
